The Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Gullwing sure knows how to make an entrance. The car (an understatement) won't debut until the Frankfurt Motor Show in September, and it won't reach showrooms until 2010, but it's already causing quite a stir on the interwebs, thanks to a handful of just-released pics and sketches.

Less sweet: the price, which is rumored to clock in around €150,000 (almost $200,000 US). Yeah, it's cheap compared to some (think the SLR McLaren), but still out of our range. Oh well--at least we can drool over those spy shots of the Gullwing frolicking in the snow.
